Wow - these mod's look incredible! Did you replace the original (wire passage) brass rods to make adding the fins easier? I'm experimenting with something similar and you may have just saved me a lot of time! Great work - congratulations
Gorgeous tom!!
Tom, are any of the other upgrades in your picture going to be available?
Fins to be ordered shortly. Would be most excellent if versions of the other parts also made, even if just printed like the fins for easy install. Yours can stay super sweet while the rest of us just pseudo sweet!
Something like this?

I drew up a reasonably accurate version of my crystal holder with rod greeblie, red wire and the two replacement rod greeblies
The fins are now available on Shapeways

For those of you with both a Crystal Chamber and light and sound, would you be able to give details as to what components you are using?
I'm new to saber building and am finding the components to be a bit overwhelming. I would definitely appreciate some suggestions.
The Nano seems to be a good choice in terms of size at least. And I definitely like the cost. =) What about a thin walled blade that works?
Thanks!
Agreed, It would be great to see a tutorial on how to do an FX build on the Roman's OB1 incorporating the chamber. I'd like to build one but haven't done the electronics thing before.
I know there's a Graflex tutorial out there but I imagine this is a diffferent animal all together.
